About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Relax in the former rectory "Sapristi.

Relax in our spacious, light-filled former rectory, “Sapristi,” located in a very quiet area just a 10-minute walk from the beach, the Venetian galleries, the Thermae Palace, and downtown Ostend.

The property is ideally located for exploring the Belgian coast. Bruges is very close by: 30 minutes by car, 45 minutes by bus and train. Visit Bruges and return to the tranquility of Ostend in the evening.

The home is very spacious and filled with natural light thanks to the tall windows and the open layout. The living room, sitting area, kitchen, and breakfast nook form a single open space on the first floor.

The entire home has, of course, been lovingly furnished—and with sustainability in mind—entirely with recycled, upcycled, and vintage design furniture.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a safe. Change of towels is available on request.

Wonderful Stay in a Beautifully Furnished Holiday Home

We had a great time during our stay in Oostend with a group of friends. The house was very well equipped and tastefully decorated – we immediately felt at home. The location was convenient both by car and on foot, and communication with the owner was smooth and easy. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back!

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Urlaub in einem außergewöhnlichen Haus. Die Zimmer sind groß, alles sauber. Parkplätze direkt vor dem Haus. Die Lage ist auch gut, 15 Gehminuten zum Strand. Und die Gastgeber sind immer erreichbar und helfen bei allem. Danke, wir kommen gerne wieder.

Wir haben zum zweiten Mal Urlaub in Sapiristi gemacht. Uns hat die Unterkunft wieder gut gefallen. Das Haus ist nicht von der Stange und sehr individuell und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Da das Wetter leider nicht ganz so mitgespielt hat, haben wir jedoch bei unseren jetzigen Aufenthalt gemerkt, dass die Lage für uns doch nicht ganz so optimal war. Bei schönem Wetter geht man gerne etwas länger zu Fuß, bei schlechterem Wetter eher nicht.

Tolles Ferienhaus

Das Haus liegt ungefähr zehn Minuten vom Strand entfernt. Lage ist super! Zum Supermarkt/Bäcker jeweils ebenfalls zu Fuß zehn Minuten. Sehr angenehme Gegend! Wir haben als Familie mit erwachsenen Kindern und mittelgroßem Hund dort gemeinsam die Ostertage verbracht . Sehr empfehlenswert!!!

Wunderschöne, individuelle Unterkunft

Wir hatten ein paar wenige, aber sehr schöne Tage im Haus von Ilse und Dirk. Viel Platz, sehr schön und mit ausgesuchten Möbeln ausgestattet. Alles sauber und ordentlich. Zum Meer ist es noch ein Stück zu laufen, was uns aber nichts ausgemacht hat.
